The Most Notable Chargers at CES 2025
All the energy you need.
At this year's CES, the latest innovations in chargers and portable power solutions focused on providing more power and convenience through integrated cables. While this is not a new idea, the increasing compatibility with USB-C across most devices has made it easier for companies to include charging cables without worrying about different standards.
One of the standout solutions is the Ugreen Nexode desktop charger, which now offers a power output of 500W. This device features five USB-C ports and one USB-A port, allowing it to charge up to five laptops simultaneously, as long as four of them do not exceed 60W each. It is expected to be available starting in March 2025.
Anker also showcased a redesigned wall charger with three USB-C ports and one USB-A port, enhancing its stability when placed on a surface. This charger can deliver up to 140W of output, but only one of the ports can operate at that power level at a time. It is currently on the market for $89.99 and includes a small display showing power consumption per port.
Sharge introduced its innovative Shargeek 300 power bank, which features a transparent design and an aluminum body. This device can deliver up to 300W of power to four devices simultaneously and has a 24,000mAh battery. Additionally, it can be recharged at speeds of up to 140W, reaching 50% charge in just 20 minutes. It will be launched on Kickstarter in April for under $300.
The Baseus PrimeTrip VR2 Max car charger allows for cable-free charging, with two retractable USB-C cables and USB-A and USB-C ports, providing a total output of up to 240W. It is expected to hit the market in April 2025 with a price of $44.99.
Anker also released a can-sized power bank with a capacity of 25,000mAh and a power output of up to 165W through various ports. This model includes displays indicating consumption per port and is available for $99.99.
Baseus introduced the Enercore CJ11 wall charger, which solves the issue of lost cables by including two retractable USB-C cables, along with an additional port. This charger can deliver up to 67W of power to a single device. It is expected to be available in April 2025 for $69.99.
Finally, the Baseus EnerGeek MiFi power bank not only provides power but also functions as a mobile hotspot. With a capacity of 20,000mAh and the ability to connect up to 10 devices to the internet, it will be launched in April 2025 with an estimated price of $89.99.
